Dark mode

Dark mode, or a light-on-dark color scheme, is a display setting that uses light-colored text, icons, and graphical elements on a dark background. Dark mode can help reduce eye strain in low light conditions, and some users prefer it for daily computer use.

Dark mode in IRIS Cascade

IRIS Cascade automatically adapts to dark mode if your own system has been configured to use it.

Dark mode is not yet available to manually enable. IRIS Cascade will apply your own system preferences, meaning that if your browser is displayed in dark mode IRIS Cascade will also be.

We are currently planning the next stage of dark mode in IRIS Cascade, which will include the ability to switch between light and dark mode from within Settings and accessibility.
